Adobe Releases New 64-Bit Flash Plugin For Linux

TheDarkener writes "Adobe seems to have made an about face regarding their support for native 64-bit Linux support for Flash today, and released a new preview Flash plugin named 'Square.' This includes a native 64-bit version for Linux, which I have verified works on my Debian Lenny LTSP server by simply copying libflashplayer.so to /usr/lib/iceweasel/plugins — with sound (which I was never able to figure out with running the 32-bit version with nspluginwrapper and pulseaudio)."

    In the winter, the metal case of my laptop makes the wrist rests a bit too chilly to want to use for more than a short time. I got into the habit of leaving a Flash game running in the background for ten minutes in the morning to warm them up.
